The following is an explanation of the fire safes testing procedures on the Class 350�F, one hour and Class 350�F two hour Fire Labels.

U.L. Label/Class 350�F-one hour and Class 350�F-two hour. The fire proof safe will maintain an interior temperature less than 350�F when exposed to fire for a period of one hour at 1700�F or for a period of two hours at 1850�F. fire safes must successfully undergo all other requirements for the Fire Endurance Test, Explosion Hazard Test and the Fire/Impact Test as stated below.

Fire safes Endurance Test

After heat sensors and paper are placed inside the fire safe, the unit is locked and exposed to a uniformly distributed fire. The furnace is regulated to reach a maximum temperature of 1700�F for a period of one hour, or 1850�F for two hours, then allowed to cool without opening the furnace. The interior temperature is recorded throughout the test and during the cooling period until a definite drop is shown and must never exceed 350�F.

Once cooled, the fire proof safe is opened and examined for usability. The units locking mechanisms and parts fastenings are examined for security and the interior examined for visible evidence of undue heat transmission
Explosion Hazard Test

The fire resistant safe is locked and placed into a furnace preheated to 2000�F. This temperature is maintained for 30 minutes (2 hour test is 45 minutes) and if no explosion results, the unit is allowed to cool without opening the furnace doors. Once cooled, the amsec fire safe is opened and examined for usability. The units locking mechanisms and parts fastenings are examined for security and the interior examined for visible evidence of undue heat transmission.

Fire Impact Test (Manufacturer�s Option)

After the explosion hazard test the fire safe is removed from the furnace and within two minutes is dropped 30' onto a riprap of brick on a heavy concrete base. After impact the unit is examined for deformation, rupture of parts, damaged insulation and any other openings into the interior of the unit. Once cooled, the unit is inverted and reheated to 1550�F for a period of 30 min. (2 hour test: 45 min. at 1638�F).

Once cooled, the fire safes is opened and examined for usability. The units locking mechanisms and parts fastenings are examined for security and the interior examined for visible evidence of undue heat transmission.
